Liter Cajun Chicken Pasta

Ingredients:

6 lean boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)

3/4 tbsp Cajun seasoning of choice, divided

2-1/4 c uncooked whole wheat penne pasta

1 large onion, chopped

2-3 tsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced or 2 tsp preminced

1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes, drained

1/4 tsp pepper

1-1/2 c half-and-half cream or milk

Instructions:

Rub chicken breast halves each with ¼ tablespoon of Cajun seasoning. Lightly

coat the grill with olive oil using a basting brush. Grill chicken, covered, over

medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 4-7 minutes on each side or until

cooked throughout with no pink.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, cook pasta according to package directions. In

a Dutch oven coated with cooking spray, sauté onion in oil until crisp-tender. Add garlic and remaining Cajun seasoning; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in tomatoes and pepper.

Drain pasta; add to the onion mixture. Stir in cream; heat through (do not boil).

Serve chicken with pasta.
